RICMIRCM_004

AbstractThis file contains the Radiometric camera-by-camera Cloud Mask dataset over the RICO region. It is used to determine whether a scene is classified as clear or cloudy. A new parameter has been added to indicate dust over ocean. This version of the ESDT is used by MISR PGE 13.

PurposeThe RCCM is used during geophysical parameter retrievals. In the TOA/Cloud Product,RCCM is combined with stereoscopically derived cloud mask to 1) establish values of the Reflecting Level Reference Altitude,2) determine how a scene is classified for choosing angular integration coefficients for establishing TOA albedos,and 3) calculate regional scene classifiers. Retrieval of Aerosol/Surface Product properties requires the absence of clouds,for retrieval assumptions to be valid.

Version DescriptionInitial Version for stand-alone usage with new PGE 13 (RCCM)
